Waratahs v Brumbies Sat 22nd March 7:30 PM Allianz

[Sully]

I want their mascot running up and down the sideline dressed as a flower!

 

[TSR]

As opposed to their forward pack running up and down the field playing like flowers??

 

[Rob42]

No, I want the OG Tah Man, jumping out of a Black Hawk helicopter with the game ball. No messing around.

 

[Yoda]

Obviously not… but a flower is their emblem and they come up with some poor excuse of a super hero which is basically ‘Flowerman’! It’s just so comical. If that is your best as an advertising guy give yourself an uppercut.

Edmed will feel hard done by coming off a high of a Wallaby trip and now on the bench for the Tahs.

Edmed will no doubt be disappointed but he struggled to get his backline firing in the first two games so McKellar opted for Creighton. Personally I think Edmed is more suited to 12 than 10. He lacks creativity and spark at 10.

Having said that, if Creighton fails to nail his conversions, Edmed will be back starting again very soon.

Honestly I think you’re being harsh. Tah Man clearly isn’t there for you - he’s there for the kids. And is he really any more cringey than the average mascot. It is obviously easier for teams like the Brumbies to have a mascot but if we both agree that a mascot dressed in a flower isn’t a good idea either than I’m surprised Tah Man is an issue for you. And it’s not as if that’s the only thing the Tahs advertising team has done. Just seems a strange thing to criticise to me - but I’ll leave it at that.

 

[Crashy]

Bagging out Tah-man is akin to shooting bambi.

 

[fatprop]

I like Tah man, he is a gentle reminder to take that pre-game piss and top up the beer (not at the same place)

 

[Overtime]

Are you suggesting the Brumbies mascot is actually a deer?

 

[Rudderless]

Tahs A score on the bell.

29-27 win over the Brumby Runners

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Both A games to the Tahs over the Runners this year.

somewhat good sign.

 

[schmidt it in]

Looking at the ticket sales now.

Lower GA is sold out in both ends. They have opened an upper tier for more GA tickets (outlined in the red square)>
The bays on the left have probably 15 tickets left for grabs between all of them (not including accessible seating).
Maybe 50 tickets left on the right bays (not including accessible seating).

Looks like this could be the biggest crowd this season for the Tahs.

 

[Super Hooper]

Brumbies defence is a real challenge for this Tahs backline

 

[Super Hooper]

So it's a MUST win game for Tahs

 

[Adam84]

Feel bad for Tupou for that one, that wasn’t his fault his teammate tried a shit pop pass off the ground

 

[TSR]

Really enjoying this so far. Both teams having a real dig.

 

[Wilson]

Feels like a bad night for the tahs, brumbies are all intent and execution, there's no room for an ambush.

 

[Jimmy_Crouch]

Toole is lucky from that kick off shot

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Roles reversed and you bet someone would be off
